delighted to find that between two days the seats
of those vehicles had been neatly upholstered.
There may be more elegant appointments in the
horse-cars of other cities. but nothing SO luxu-

Journal has no hesitation in saying that the
public is pleased. Fastidious tastes may OBJ

arrangements of the brass nails and tho sub

minor faults. The i'm provement is q substantial

nevertheless, it is curious enough to wonder
why the luxury should be thrust upon it just at

The Doris * Colvin Colossal Shows
The long-promised advent of these
greatest shows on earth-as named
above-is now at hand. The grand
uniiication of worlds worlds wonders
will positively exhibit at Dallas on
Friday, October %, and give two
grand entertainments, one at and
one at Z p. III. The Doris Il Colvin
confederation of monster shows is
without doubt or cavil the greatest
amusement consolidation we have
ever seen. The Cincinnati Enquirer
SAYS: "There are more first-class
artists, acts and wonders in the Doris
81 Colvin Circus, Menagerie, Museum,
Elevated Stage, Roman Hippodrome
aud New Wild West Show than would
ably equip ten ordinary shows"
The hippodrome i'm is itself com
plete show, greater than many other
shows. The same may be said of the
New Wild West, while the reputation
of the three-ring circus and monster
menagerie needs no word from us in
praise. We can only agree with the
Louisville Courier-Journal which
saws: "The Doris 81 Coluin shows

We infer from the tenor of the

lated the arguments which are to go
forth TO the public as justifying the

outside pressure to pass the Interstate

BoND's opinion in the FIrzGERALD
case is directly in the teeth Of the deci-
sion of the Supreme Court of the United

State to require the coupons to be veri-
fed. This latter court decided ex-
pressly that the law requiring the cou-
pons to be verified was not an impair
ment of the obligation of the contract

cided that it Wds. But the Supreme

have a "whack " at BOND, and Will. We

He is, of course, good natured, and,
like Jack Falstaff, finds much to amuse
himself and his friends in his personal
unwieldiness. Mr.. Barnes says hewould
not take thousand dollars for his flesh.
He waghs himself frequently and regl-
larly, and when he finds that he has
gained in weight, he halls the fact as n
good omen. There are other fat men
in the House, but Barnes leads the
heavy weighs, and nobody questions
or envies his ponderous supremacy.
His popularity at home, the Tenth
district of Georgia, is commensurate
with his matchless proportions. The
constituency are proud of having 50
much congressman, and voters are
nearly solid for him. 1t is prophesied
that he can be congressman just as
long as he may please.
The biggest man i'll Congress resides
at Augusta, Georgia, where he has a
good reputation as lawyer, and was
much respected and loved by his fellow
citizens long before he was heard of as
congressman. He was born in Rich
mond county, Georgia, on August IA,
1888. His education is superior; be-
ginning at the academy of his native
county, it was continued at Franklin
College, University of Georgia, where
he graduated at twenty years of age.
He chose the legal profession, read
with diligence, and was admitted to the
bar of his State. Beginning practice
forthwith he soon achieved success.
His public services began in 1850,
with his election to the House of Repre-
sentatives of Georgia After five years
Of service he returned to private life
and unbroken attention to the practice
of his profession. From 1876 to 1885,
he was member of the National Demo-
cratic Committee from Georgia. He

Democrat by an overwhelming ms
